I'm a bit of a newbie with the Abit, and I set it up to just get it running after I built it a couple of weeks back. I've noticed in the Soft Menu III settings that the CPU operating speed is set to 1000 which is right.
However, the CPU FSB/PCI Clock is 100/33Mhz and the Multiplier Factor is set to x10. Know this (I'm pretty sure) is OK if I do't mind running PC133 RAM at 100Mhz, but I wanted to set it up to a 133FSB. So the multiplier would be x7.5!???? So I kept everything else the same, and upped the CPU FSB/PCI Clock to 133/33Mhz and the Multiplier to x7.5. It won't even POST when I do that. Is there something I'm missing!?! The Processor isn't overclocked. The DRAM clock is set to Host CLK. Should I change this?
It's probably blatantly obvious but any help would be appreciated if anyones's got experience of setting up Soft Menu III (or know what they're talking about about, unlike me). Any advice on tweeking any other parts would be handy to!
Thanks in advance!
The processor is not modified in any way at all. I thought I should just be allowed to up the FSB without any probs to run at what the RAM is capable of. Cheers for any help
